It wasn't easy, I can tell you. Hand-shaping every one of those damn mugs,
not to mention the kiln time. Those tails made it impossible to fit more
than two at a time. I still don't think I got the nose quite right, and
some people were a little offended by the baby pacifier round the dingo's
neck. Still, all in a good cause, right?

On a slightly more serious note ;o), I did pretty well in the raffle too.
One of Les Ross' wonderful original cross-stitches, and a double-CD of Joni
live in Philadelphia in 1976 - thanks to whoever donated this, it's
wonderful, and has a great version of For Free!
Several people also commented on the Joni (Siquomb) t-shirt I made for
Kerry. I'm thinking of making a few to sell next Jonifest, with the profits
going to Jim (presumably it will be his turn)! If people like this idea,
I'll work on 3 or 4 designs, and take orders a few months before the 'fest
itself.
